The FM radio performance, according to the reviews, were very good, but the AM performance was sub-par. (It seemed that the A/C to DC power adapter -- the radio doesn't have a conventional A/C power cord -- generated a lot of RFI, causing a lot of noise especially on weaker AM radio signals.) I normally wake up to AM news channels. Secondly, the performance as an ALARM CLOCK looked very poor. Read the reviews on-line. Very hard to program, and very difficult to skip a day or change the alarm time. I just didn't want to deal with it. My existing Panasonic table alarm clock radio, with conventional, not digital, radio tuning, but with a digital clock, is extremely easy to program. It also has dual alarms and a snooze button. The only problem with it is the small volume control POT on the top, after like 15 years, gets ratty when adjusting the volume. But I'll live with it until I find something better.
